Steam Store description
Executed your masters. Stole the ludus. Now, build a rebel force in secret. Gladatora is a gritty, turn based RPG that combines classic side view combat with deep squad management, high stakes stealth, and open world exploration. After orchestrating a bloody mutiny, you must run the ludus in secret, maintaining your Ludus Reputation (LR) to avoid Roman suspicion while training a rebel force right under the Empire's nose. Your rebellion unfolds across two intertwined halves of the same world. The open world , where you recruit allies, complete quests, grind experience, and hunt for loot and hidden secrets. And in the Arena , open for roughly 8 hours of each in game day, where your gladiators test themselves against escalating combat. Progress on one side strengthens the other, and both hide difficult, high stakes battles of their own. You can fully focus on either path, but the deepest rewards come from weaving them together. With systems this deep, you're never expected to master everything at once. Most players can finish the game and reach one of its multiple endings, with just a handful of fighting styles and a core squad they're comfortable with. Everything else is there for you to dive into whenever you're ready to go deeper. Key Features Dynamic Combat: Master classic side view, turn based battles driven by row positioning, turn order manipulation, and strategic stance switching, where line formation determines tactical advantage. 17+ Gladiatorial Fighting Styles: From Retiarii to Murmillones, customize your fighters with class specific armor proficiencies (Clo…

Content descriptors
This game is set in Ancient Rome and follows the lives of gladiators. Battles use side-view, turn-based RPG combat. Combat includes mild blood effects, including blood detailing on the main arena's battle backdrop where most fights take place, as well as minor blood tile decals in a couple of other locations blood is stylized and not graphic. Character death occurs only in the standard RPG sense (in battle), including an optional permadeath mode; there are also a couple of non-battle character deaths handled in typical RPG Maker style, nothing graphic. Characters consume period-accurate beverages (lora and cyser, both historical Roman drinks) in tavern scenes. An optional, easy to miss side activity lets players wager in-game currency on themselves winning their own upcoming arena battle. The story explores mature historical themes, including the Roman institution of slavery as it existed within the world of gladiatorial combat, as well as themes of mortality and the fragility of life.
